Composed by Daniel Corral and produced by Beth Morrison Projects, COLLAPSE is a vividly sardonic show with interactive visuals and satiric songs about the environmental catastrophes caused by humans.<\/p>\n<p>Envisioned as a theatrical requiem, different stories are refracted through the hauntingly eclectic sound of the four-member band through accordion\/keys, bass, guitar and drums. The vibrant voice of the Kazakh-American tenor TIMUR, playing the role of Moloch, a God of human sacrifice, brings urgent dramatic figuration to laments of environmental degradation past, present and future. Composer Corral\u2019s approach to COLLAPSE focuses on reimagining the traditional requiem form into a band-driven song cycle for the 21st century.<\/p>\n<p>Live-mixed projections by the award-winning video artist Jesse Gilbert (World Technology Network fellow), and costumes of the LA fashion designer Victor Wilde of the Bohemian Society (Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week 2014), will further create a raucous portrait of the human-made impact on the planet.<\/p>\n<div title=\"Page 2\">\n<div>\n<div>\n<p>Following the world-premiere at REDCAT, Collapse will travel to Miami Light Project and Operadagen Festival in Rotterdam, Netherlands.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Jesse will create live visuals for the world premiere of Timur and the Dime Museum&#8217;s multimedia requiem, Collapse, at RedCat in Los Angeles, March 27-29, 2014.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":1265,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[13],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-1254","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-news"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/jessegilbert.net\/cms\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1254","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/jessegilbert.net\/cms\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/jessegilbert.net\/cms\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/jessegilbert.net\/cms\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/jessegilbert.net\/cms\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=1254"}],"version-history":[{"count":15,"href":"https:\/\/jessegilbert.net\/cms\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1254\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":1270,"href":"https:\/\/jessegilbert.net\/cms\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1254\/revisions\/1270"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/jessegilbert.net\/cms\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/1265"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/jessegilbert.net\/cms\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=1254"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/jessegilbert.net\/cms\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=1254"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/jessegilbert.net\/cms\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=1254"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
